A day's travelling to
get nearer the Southern Alps. Stopped at Lincoln for more food, now
we've got sorted with just how much we can store in Tallullah (our
bijou camper)
Travelled via the
Inland Scenic Route 72, through Rakaia Gorge which was nothing really
like a gorge then using our offline Rankers app we got directions for
our campsite for the night, Pioneer Park campsite, a Conservation
campsite. Basic camping in a big open field with just a public toilet
and water to drink if boiled.
Rankers is a fabulous
app as its got everything you may need while travelling in New
Zealand. All legal campsites, petrol, wifi, supermarkets, dump
stations etc. And all available offline.
Weather was hot and
sunny when we left but as we moved west the clouds thickened and temp
dropped a bit but still able to sit outside with a jumper on.
We had a short walk
from campsite straight up a steep, heavily wooded trail and what did
we see in the deep, dark wood......a wallaby jumped across our path
and in
to the bush! Fabulous
but no photo! Locals say they are pests! I was overjoyed.
